A min-cash is worth $1,839 and a player will get a five-figure payday for finishing 36th or higher. A final table appearance will lock up $32,748 while the winner will walk away with $440,829 and a bracelet.
It's not been a great day for the PokerStars Team Pros today. We saw several in the field today but now we can only find France's Arnaud Mattern in the field.
Liv Boeree, Martin Staszko, Vanessa Selbst, Jose "Nacho" Barbero, Chad Brown and David Williams all played a stack today but aren't with us anymore.
Galen Hall has been eliminated and apparently has found much more exciting things to do.

PokerStars Team Pro and 2011 November Niner Martin Staszko has risen from the dead. Actually, no, not really. Despite all the zombie uprising talk the past few weeks we mistakenly had Staszko as eliminated.
But he's fine and well and has just under the average stack. In a field this size players have moved up to four or five times.
